Signs for motorway service areas
No Services
On most motorways, service areas are provided at intervals of not more than 30 miles, half an hour at normal motorway driving speeds. These service areas are open 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and provide fuel, free parking (up to 2 hours), refreshments, toilets and disabled access. Other facilities, including telephones, motels and tourist information, may also be provided. Some motorway service areas are accessed directly from the main carriageway, others via junctions with other roads, where they will also be available to non-motorway traffic.
Sign on all-purpose road indicating that no services are available on motorway ahead. The motorway number may include a compass point (e.g. ‘M 41(N)’) if services are available in one direction but not the other.
